Our mana is reflected through how we care for our people; protecting, nurturing and supporting them.
All of our projects, initiatives and enterprises collectively work together to uplift all members of our community, internally and externally – creating a ripple effect that is felt throughout Aotearoa and across the waters of Te Moana Nui a Kiwa. Our purpose is to enhance the mana of Māori and Pacific people – to support them in realising their own dreams, with a vision to positively impact the lives of 10 million people.
Each entity inside of WE Mana has been carefully constructed to fit into this purpose and contributes towards our vision. We are always trying to push boundaries and find more Indigenous ways of doing business.
We are committed to making a positive impact by prioritizing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. We understand that sustainable and responsible business practices are crucial for the well-being of our planet and society. Our focus on ESG reflects our dedication to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance. By integrating these principles into every aspect of our operations, we strive to create meaningful and lasting contributions to the communities we serve.
At WE Mana, ESG isn't just a framework; it's a guiding philosophy that shapes our decisions and actions, fostering a business that not only thrives but also contributes to a better, more sustainable world.
